Mt. Vernon is an alternative school with the capacity to serve ninety sixth through eighth grade mild to moderate at-risk students. Approximately 10 percent of these are identified as special education students receiving additional consultative and resource services.

Our mission is to provide all students an opportunity to succeed in character development and academics while becoming more responsible and productive citizens equipped for future challenges.

Our services include an accelerated curriculum based program, the Booster Program, designed to give overage 7th and 8th grade students an opportunity to catch up academically.
